Psalms 124:1-5

¹The song of degrees of David. Israel say now, No but for the Lord was in us; (A song by David for steps of ascending. Let Israel say now, If the Lord was not with us or If the Lord had not been for us,)

²no but for the Lord was in us. When men rose up against us; (yea, if the Lord was not with us or if the Lord had not been for us; then when men rose up against us,)

³in hap they had swallowed us quick. When the strong vengeance of them was wroth against us; (they would have swallowed us up alive. Yea, when their fury raged against us;)

⁴in hap water had swallowed us up. Our soul passed through a strand; (the water would have swallowed us up. When the stream had gone up over our heads;)

⁵in hap our soul had passed through a water unsufferable. (when the insufferable waters had gone up over our heads.)
